Agriturismo il Casale degli Amici

We came for dinner, unannounced, on a Monday evening. We were sat immediately, overlooking the valley. This was maybe the best dinner we had in Italy (which included Rome, Naples, Florence, and Venice, amongst some other small places like Norcia). Very fresh, great wine pairing, excellent dessert. Worth a trip out of the way to come visit.

We had a great stay in Norcia. The owner is very friendly, the location has nice rooms and breathtaking views. The food is excellent, you should definitely try the lasagne with truffle.

This is a splendid restaurant with great local dishes such as those with Norcia truffles, which everyone should try.

Il Casale degli Amici is nestled in a tranquil setting just beside the most beautiful Benedictine monastery.

The rooms are rustic but comfortable and you have beautiful views in every direction. The staff are friendly and the food is AMAZING. Ernesto was even kind enough to drive us to the monastery so we could assist at Mass with the monks.

I can’t wait to return!

This Agriturismo called Casale degli Amici located in Norcia, Italy is ideal for a great lunch with family, friends, a couple or just for celebrating a special date. The food is highly delicious and homemade. Even the customer service is personalized and attentive. The view is breathtaking. Lunch can be served either indoors or outdoors. It’s easy to arrive and parking friendly. I totally recommend this Casale.

Probably the best countryside experience in Norcia. The location is perfect if you are looking for a tranquile, relaxing stay; the area is situated just below the appennines so it is fresher than any other location nearby, which is perfect during the hot summer days. The rooms are simple and rustic, minimalistic with elegance and there is all
You need. One of the best thing is the shower: the water flow is potent and constant, it’s just perfect! It’s a simple thing makes the whole stay better, we couldn’t wait to get to he room for a shower at the end of the day. The structure are in great shape after the earthquake so feel 100% safe there. The pool is big and perfect if you like to swim. The food is fresh and with lots of vegetarian options, plus truffle is almost always on the menu with no extra charge if you pick the plan with the food included. The best thing is the service though: Francesco the waiter is one of the best I have found in many years. He went the extra mile to accommodate all our requests, so much that he even went to pick fresh peppermint from the garden after our request for a tea. Ernesto the owner is always up for a talk and a great character too. It makes you feel relaxed and in tone with the mood of the place. Look no further if you are searching the perfect countryside retreat And you want to be close to Castelluccio (40 mins) But also to Spello, Spoleto, Montefalco and Assisi (1hr).

It's difficult to describe how magical this entire experience was. To begin, Norcia is stunningly beautiful - it felt tucked away in the green hills of Italy, off the beaten path. The Casale is located just outside of town. It is quiet and peaceful. Our room was large and beautifully designed with exposed wood beams, and the four post bed with linens draped over the top offered an added touch of luxury. The proprietor, Seniore Ernesto, was kind and gracious. We had a wonderful conversation with him. Then, dinner was spectacular. The food, all raised and prepared on site, was beyond our expectations. The formaggi, the salumi, and local wine from Montefalco, followed by the pasta fatto in casa in traditional Norcian style, and the grilled sausage and spezzatino - one dish better than the next. A true gem in all aspects. We will be back.

Need a place to stay while visiting the monks? This is the location. The folks they work here are very hospitable and friendly. I came for coffee while staying with the monks of Norcia and was always taken care of!!

God bless this place of hospitality.

We didn't stay at the hotel, but had dinner in the restaurant. From the terrace you have a wonderful view on the city and the mountains. The carpaccio with truffles is amazing as well as the (white) lasagne norcina. Very good service, super friendly staff and top location. Anyone who stays in Norcia should definitely eat here!

Definitely the best place to stay in Norcia, quiet and suggestive, speechless about the food, every single dish is a must to try!
I’ll be back hopefully soon!
A special thanks to the owners and all the staff super friendly and helpful.

A wee treasure and anyone looking for a great Agriturismo in a beautiful part of Italy with great food and wine you need to go there. The Truffle omelette and the wild boar papparadelle were to die for! EXCELLENTE

A glorious location, pleasant rooms and superb, genuinely Umbrian cuisine from the kitchen. Sufficiently enjoyable that my wife has insisted we go back for her birthday weekend.

Pleasant and quiet.
Location out of site wonderful.
Very friendly host, Barbara.
